The Arc language wiki has this list of languages that make use of significant whitespace.

There's a community version of the language being developed here: https://github.com/arclanguage/anarki
It works with the latest Racket versions and includes a HN clone. You can see it running here: http://arclanguage.org/forum
It's true that pg isn't working on it though. I wonder if he's ever getting back to it.

Google Search is one of Google's easiest products to switch away from. DuckDuckGo, Bing, whatever. They all do the job.

How do you feel about elementary OS? [0] They spend a lot of effort on UX and it's the project I personally believe has the most chance to push Free Software to a wider audience, but on the other hand it's yet another project contributing to fragmentation.
I'm not sure where they stand wrt XDG, but I bet if you asked them for help with UX and designing stuff, they would love to collaborate.

I'm curious about how the two relate to each other. Is 99B supposed to supplant or complement POODR?

>libimageflow has ~10x the throughput of ImageMagick, yet puts security first. It is correct, fast, and has an evolvable JSON API. Imageflow doesn’t try to be ImageMagick; it supports only the core image operations and web-safe image formats needed by most applications and websites. This focus allows libimageflow to have a tiny and auditable codebase.

pomf.se used to have:
>Enable JavaScript you fucking autist neckbeard, it's not gonna hurt you
It always gave me a chuckle. Most of its clones still have it (e.g. pomf.cat).

Pelican does too. Just use 'make regenerate' instead of 'make publish': http://docs.getpelican.com/en/3.6.3/publish.html#make

Weird, I thought the same.

There should be a doctype declaration that automatically triggers this.

It's outside the scope of sbase, but there's work on a vi-like editor too: http://www.brain-dump.org/blog/entry/144/vis_a_highly_effici...
